Answer:

A principal quantum number refers to the energy level of the orbital.

Explanation:

A principal quantum number refers to the energy level of the orbital, the first level being the one with the lowest energy. This orbital refers to the average distance of the electron to the nucleus, this mean when the principal quantum number increases the energy of that orbital increases too but the probability of finding the electron near the nucleus decreases.

This quantum number can take  positive integers from 1 to 7

A piece of stainless steel weighing 1.55 g absorbs 141 J of heat energy when its temperature increases by 178oC. What is the spe
V125BC [204]

Answer:

= 0.551J/(g°C)

Explanation:

Specific heat is the amount of heat to required to raise the temperature of 1 gram substance to 1° C

The formula

C = q / m × ΔT ______ (1)

where ,

C = specific heat

q = heat

m = mass

ΔT = change in temperature

mass of the stainless steel is m = 1.55g

heat of the stainless steel is q = 141 J

the change in temperature is ΔT = 178°C

substitute all the value in the equation (1)

C = \frac{141}{1.55 \times 178 } \\\\= 0.511J /(g^\circ C)

Calculate the pH of a solution with [OH−]=1.3×10−2M. (Hint: Begin by using Kw to find [H3O+].)
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

12.11.

Explanation:

∵ pOH = - log[OH⁻]

<em>∴ pOH</em> = - log(1.3 x 10⁻²) = <em>1.886.</em>

∵ pH + pOH = 14.

<em>∴ pH = 14 - pOH</em> = 14 - 1.886 = <em>12.11.</em>

Why do we experience the changing of the seasons on earth
iren2701 [21]

<u>Answer:</u>

Earth's axis and position around the sun.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Earth's tilted axis causes the seasons to change. Throughout the year, different parts of Earth acquire the Sun's most direct rays(Or heat) because of the orbital rotation of Earth. So, when the North Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's summer inside the Northern Hemisphere. And whilst the South Pole tilts towards the Sun, it is winter within the Northern Hemisphere and vise versa.
